The Flathead Valley of Montana – Health Care is the ‘Engine of Growth’

While economic recovery in the Flathead Valley after the recession has been slow going for most business sectors, the private health care sector has grown significantly, and looks to continue to do so in the future.

That’s the message from the University of Montana’s Bureau of Business and Economic Research, and will be part of the overall 38th Annual Montana Economic Outlook 2013 presentation and seminar at the Hilton Garden Inn on Feb. 15.

This year’s seminar is titled, "The Best Medicine: How Can Montanans Take Charge of Changes in Health Care?" and will include a keynote address from Larry White, director of the Western Montana Area Health Education Center at the University of Montana, about the latest developments in health care.
